Propaganda warfare - a photo on Flickriver

Propaganda warfare

            A small example of state propaganda, caught red-handed:
Google “sit boy Leavitt Traoré” and you’ll see dozens of sites all with roughly the same content: Leavitt insulting a captain of the Burkina Faso army.
But there’s no video of the incident itself — the story is narrated by a synthetic voice.
These types of sites have been flourishing lately (another example is “The Adventures of Saint Keanu Reeves”)…
These videos get millions of views and aim to polarize or denigrate American/Western society. They are alternately pro-Trump or against him.
Who’s behind it? The Russian or Chinese government — or both. I have no proof.
But in the case of Burkina Faso, both of these nations currently play a privileged role with that African state. This is just a tiny example and the social networks are saturated with this kind of horrible content.
